Title
editSluzk Affair - what language is it? The city is called Slutsk here. Sluzk is German, but Affair isn't.Xx236 08:57, 27 June 2007 (UTC)
In referene to historical events you will quite often see non-English ames of places, peole, etc. But this is not the major problem here. I fail to find any references to the described event that is called "Affair". The article must be renamed. but since there are no reliable sources provided for the article, it is impossible to use the common name. May be a descriptiove one must be used. `'Miikka 15:45, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Personal point of view
editThe last sentence before "See Also" chapter is totally invented and does not have, and will never have, a reference. It should be removed or drastically modified as per WP:PPOV. Carlotm (talk) 00:34, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
- Absolutely nothing in this farce of an article has a citation, and that is for a reason. The attempted excuse that "Hitler did not know about the holocaust," has been a popular whitewash for decades. It has been thoroughly debunked time and again, but there is no shortage of people continuing to use it today. Unfortunately, I have come to expect nothing more than such shoddy, unsourced, unreliable articles from WK, many of which barely try to hide their "masked" racism. 208.125.143.178 (talk) 14:30, 22 March 2022 (UTC)

Slutsk affair → Aktion in Slutsk – "Slutsk affair" sounds like a terrible euphemism for something that was the mass murder of some 4,000 Jews. I think we should say "Slutsk massacre," but the RS seem to support "Aktion in Slutsk", this form is also used by the USHMM Encyclopedia of Camps and Ghettos, 1933-1945 Marcelus (talk) 19:57, 8 March 2023 (UTC)
- Move to Slutsk massacre instead. The German anti-Jewish Aktionen are generally translated as "X massacres". See for example the "Slutsk massacre", along with other massacres in: Atrocities Massacres and War Crimes. See also: Category:Holocaust massacres and pogroms in Lithuania, etc., with most articles being named "massacres". --K.e.coffman (talk) 03:02, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- Move to Slutsk massacre per K.e.coffman, their argument about consistency makes sense. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:56, 9 March 2023 (UTC)
- Move to Slutsk massacre unless there were more than the 1941 massacre in which case add 1941 In ictu oculi (talk) 12:14, 9 March 2023 (UTC)

- Move to Slutsk massacre - Tim O'Doherty (talk) 22:14, 10 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support Slutsk affair → Slutsk massacre per K.e.coffman and all subsequent votes. —Roman Spinner (talk • contribs) 21:41, 12 March 2023 (UTC)
- Support moving it to Slutsk massacre, we already have consensus so I suggest a snow close. --Killuminator (talk) 19:59, 14 March 2023 (UTC)
